The power of you: Self-worth and confidence - Family Constelations and inner child work

Almost every issue in our personal lives comes down to low self-esteem and a lack of self-worth: our criticism and self-judgement, our fears, the compromises we make in relationships, the choices we make in life, our failures, sense of guilt, and even some illnesses. All of these stem from our primary trauma—the belief that we are flawed, inadequate, not good enough, and that we “don’t fit”.
 
Family constellations reveal some of the paths through which we can heal our sense of belonging and regain our sense of worth. In this online seminar, we will explore which early relationships shape our feelings of security, self-confidence, courage, and authenticity, so that we can stand in our lives with more personal power, dignity, and determination.
 
Topics that we cover:
 
⫸ Early attachment with the mother (security).
⫸ Interrupted connection with the father (our strength).
⫸ Who are we loyal to? The rejected and forgotten members of the family.
⫸ Misplaced guilt/shame.
⫸ Accepting your parents as they are and your fate as it has come.
⫸ Working with the inner child (maturity).
⫸ Taking responsibility for your own life.
 
Some questions that we address:
 
• What does it mean to have self-worth?
• How can we recognize whether we treat ourselves with respect?
• What characterizes people who have an internal sense of value?
 
We will examine the topic through the lens of family constellations and inner child work and engage in several guided exercises to help us accept our roots, give back burdens, and separate from the past with love—simple steps toward building better self-esteem.
 
We will reconnect with the truth of who we are beyond our personal biography, so that it no longer defines us but instead becomes a source of strength for something good.
 
Many people share their struggles with choosing what they want or feel is right for them because they fear the consequences. The most common fears stopping them from standing up for their perspective, acting boldly, and being honest include:

• “I’m afraid I’ll end up alone.”
• “I’ll be rejected.”
• “They won’t like me.”
• “Will I cope with the guilt if I deviate from the status quo?”
 
These fears stem from self-doubt, low self-worth, and a loss of personal identity, as well as from badly prioritizing ourselves. Ultimately, this can be summed up in two words: imposed shame and guilt—the feeling that we’re not good enough, hidden behind anger, insecurity, fear, humiliation, abuse, addiction, overeating, or self-harm.
 
We strive to appear perfect, avoid criticism and judgment, and gain approval, forcing ourselves into roles that lead to inauthenticity and an external critical gaze that keeps us tense and eager to please at any cost. This displaces naturalness and authenticity, making us live the lives of others.
 
This course offers guidance on how to regain your sense of self-worth, stand behind your choices, and allow yourself to “be yourself.” Taking such personal responsibility is the only way to align with the flow of your life.
